Best Dinner Places to Eat in Higher Chisworth

"D&D London group’s all-day restaurant, bar and grill, 20 Stories, on the 19th floor of the No1 Spinningfields building in central Manchester. The modern British menu in the main restaurant showcases local produce, with the majority sourced within a 50-mile radius of the city. Herdwick lamb sits on potato gnocchi and chanterelle mushrooms, poached John Dory is served with a smart langoustine velouté and white asparagus, and butter-poached salsify is topped with burnt leeks and parsnip purée."

"A new kid on the block, Aiden Byrne’s menu is a modern British affair with ingredients either locally sourced or from the restaurant’s own farm in Cheshire. And as you might expect, Manchester’s highest restaurant offers stunning views over the city to complement the food and service."

"Not only does it hold the title as Manchester's highest restaurant, but 20 Stories has also garnered acclaim for its locally-sourced eats. Dishes such as truffle risotto and grilled halibut with a pistachio crust are paired with an impressive wine list to make for a memorable evening."

"With acclaim from national reviewers, Bundobust's street food and craft beer philosophy may seem simple, but it's hella tasty. The Manchester restaurant is a must for sharing vegan food; though don't end up squabbling over the bhel puri - a mix of pastry, peas and tamarind chutney."

"You can eat for well under a tenner at Indian kitchen Bundobust. Located in the Northern Quarter, the restaurant is a veggie haven of spicy cooking; we recommend the masala dosa, a warming combination of soup and mini pancakes."

"Tattu delivers modern Chinese cuisine in a fabulously decorated venue. Cherry blossom trees fill the restaurant whilst traditional Chinese decor accentuate the walls. Small sharing plates as well as banquet-style set menus are available celebrating contemporary Chinese flavours."

"It goes without saying that a visit to Tattu should be on the agenda when you're in town. The menu is just as striking as the interiors, with authentic pan-Asian dishes alongside distinctive cocktails containing ingredients like sake and yuzu."

"Sometimes you just walk into a restaurant and your heart does funny things. Tattu is possibly the most beautiful place to eat in the north, a quite incredible …"

"Located in the heart of Manchester, The Ivy Spinningfields only opened in November 2018, but is already a must-visit spot for anyone seeking a little glamour. The Brasserie serves modern British classics while the The Ivy Asia and Bar serves Asian-inspired cocktails and sharing dishes with entertainment and resident DJs. There are also three private dining rooms - The Dalton, The Geisha Room and The Skylight Terrace."

"A very special spot standing proud in the centre of Spinningfields, The Ivy consists of three charming floors – one of which is completely decked out in the most spectacular, Far Eastern-inspired decor. And the nods don’t end there. The menu is completely inspired by Asia, too, taking inspiration from all corners of the continent when curating their menu."

"One of the largest restaurants to open in the UK in 2018 with 535 covers, The Ivy Spinningfields is set over four floors with a ground floor brasserie, ..." Read our full review"

"Undoubtedly Sheffield’s most opulent Italian, Rossi’s pairs a grand over the top dining room with a menu of comforting Italian trattoria staples, all at very reasonable prices. Regular live music is a nice touch, too."

"Across the road from Kelham Island at the Shalesmoor tram stop, you’ll find the Wellington. A ‘proper’ pub in every sense of the word with a cosy fireplace. It also happens to be the tap house of Neepsend Brewery, so you know there’s great beer available."

"Head to the late-Victorian neo-Gothic building for amazing architecture which will add a splash of sophistication to your feed. John Rylands Library was opened to the public in 1900 and looks more like a castle or cathedral rather than a place to loan out books. Venture into the Reading Room with its ornate wooden carvings and designs, for the best photos."

"For the library lovers amongst us, the fun doesn’t end there. The John Rylands Library, now run as part of the similarly prestigious University of Manchester, is a grade 1 listed building. The library opened in 1900 at a cost of £200,000, and has been renovated on just 3 occasions over the 118 years following its emergence."

"CFCCA is the UK leader in Chinese visual culture, with a reputation for debut solo exhibitions and a roster of internationally-renowned artists; impressive considering that, three decades ago, it was just a series of events in Manchester’s Chinatown. As Manchester’s Chinese population is second only to London’s, the centre’s heritage is particularly important; now represented in a new archive and library. Best feature: A vibrant events schedule, spanning film screenings to workshops and even Mandarin lessons"

"Centre For Chinese Contemporary Art is a unique art gallery with a year-round programme of socially engaged exhibitions, events, and artist residencies. They have over 30 years experience of working with emerging and established artists to provide a space for conversation, debate, and cross-cultural exchange. They are the go-to place to discover new artists and explore relevant global issues from different international perspectives."

"Manchester's Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art will reopen both of its galleries on Wednesday May 19. Exhibitions Multiplicities in Flux and Autopsy of a Home, which originally opened in October, will be back until June 13. Booking is advised at cfcca.org.uk but walk-ups are welcome."

"Launched in 2019, Sarah's Yard is a fairly new name to the Urmston area but has gained a quick reputation for its selection of artisan and specialist foods. The shop and cafe bar sells everything from tapas to continental meats, savoury biscuits and bottled beer. Whether you want to book a table or pop in for a few bits and bobs, they’ve got you sorted."
